Rick Edwards on Great British Castle Rescue, AI & the Hidden Cost of History

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by presenter Rick Edwards to talk about his new show Great British Castle Rescue, which premieres on Sky History.

Rick admits he’d never given much thought to castles before working on the series, but filming quickly opened his eyes to just how much restoration and upkeep these historic buildings require.

We talk about the incredible work being done to preserve some of Britain’s most iconic structures, and how initiatives such as The National Lottery Open Week are helping support heritage sites across the country.

Rick also shares his thoughts on the programme’s use of AI to help bring the past back to life, and how technology can help audiences understand history in new ways.

And because no conversation stays serious forever, we finish by asking which football team he thinks best resembles a crumbling old castle.

Geoff Norcott on Basic Blokes, Comedy & the New Tour 

On this episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by comedian Geoff Norcott to talk about his latest stand-up tour Basic Bloke 2 – There’s No Bloke Without Fire. 

We get into Geoff’s take on what it means to be a “blokey bloke” in modern Britain — from the mysteries of why men apparently own pyjamas, to whether dressing gowns serve any real purpose. 

Geoff also explains why sometimes the simple things in life are enough: a random Bundesliga match on the TV, a packet of Twiglets, and a bit of peace and quiet. 

Along the way we talk about the inspiration behind his latest show, how everyday observations become stand-up material, and what audiences can expect from the tour. 

It’s a funny and honest conversation about comedy, everyday life and the strange habits we all recognise.

 Freddy Quinne on Fixing the School Holiday System 

On this episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by former teacher Freddy Quinne to discuss a topic that affects millions of families every year — the school holiday system and soaring holiday prices. 

We explore why travel costs often spike dramatically during summer and half-term breaks, and whether families are being unfairly squeezed because of rigid term dates. 

Freddy outlines what he believes is a “common-sense” solution: grouping inset days together, staggering school breaks more thoughtfully, and giving families more flexibility without disrupting education. 

We also talk about what parents can realistically do, including contacting their child’s school and raising the issue constructively. 

Whether you agree or disagree, it’s a conversation that affects most households with school-aged children.

Harry Lawtey on Under Salt Marsh, Working with Kelly Reilly & What’s Next

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by Harry Lawtey, who plays Dylan Rees in the final episode of Sky’s drama Under Salt Marsh.

Harry talks about joining such a tense and atmospheric series, what it was like working alongside a stellar cast including Kelly Reilly and Jonathan Pryce, and how the Welsh setting — and weather — became part of the storytelling.

We also discuss the decision to release episodes weekly rather than as a full box set, and how that slower burn can build tension and conversation in a very different way.

And just before we finish, Harry hints at his next project — a small film about The Beatles — and what excites him about what’s coming next.

It’s a thoughtful conversation about performance, collaboration and the power of anticipation.

 Kenny Thomas on 90s Hits, Perspective & Performing for Quincy Jones 

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by British R&B singer Kenny Thomas as he prepares for his current tour. 

We look back at the 90s, the era that saw Kenny score major hits and become a household name. But as he explains, chart positions and number ones aren’t everything — and success looks very different with hindsight. 

Kenny opens up about the highs and the difficult moments in his career, what it feels like to revisit those songs on stage now, and what fans can expect from the new live shows. 

He also shares a remarkable story about singing for music legend Quincy Jones, a moment that stands out even in a career full of highlights. 

It’s a thoughtful conversation about longevity, legacy and loving the music.

Jenny Seagrove on Her Sister’s Bones, Playing Dark Roles & Letting Characters Go 

On this episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by Jenny Seagrove to talk about her new film Her Sister’s Bones, now available on Digital HD. 

Jenny shares how she first became involved in the project and what intrigued her about playing Kate, a character layered with complexity and emotional depth. We also explore some of the darker roles she has portrayed throughout her career, and how she manages to step into intense psychological territory without carrying those characters with her off set. 

We talk about the strength of the cast, the film’s powerful setting, and the tension that builds toward a major twist — all without giving anything away. 

It’s a thoughtful, spoiler-free conversation about craft, character and the psychology behind performance.

Jordan Banjo on Diversity’s ‘Soul’, AI, Radio & Boxing 

On this episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by Jordan Banjo from Diversity to talk about their latest tour, Soul. 

We explore why the show focuses on artificial intelligence and what it means to stay human in a world that’s constantly evolving. Jordan explains the thinking behind the title, how the creative process works within Diversity, and why this tour feels particularly relevant right now. 

We also look back at his time in radio and whether he misses life behind the microphone, before switching gears to talk boxing, training discipline and his new podcast. 

It’s a lively, thoughtful conversation about performance, pressure, creativity and keeping your edge in multiple arenas.

Laura Jones: Why Walking Matters More Than We Think 

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by content creator and Walk For Hearts ambassador Laura Jones to talk about the power of something we often take for granted — walking. 

We explore why walking is one of the simplest and most effective ways to support heart health, and why starting with even a small amount each day can make a real difference over time. Laura shares her own experience of heart problems, how movement became part of her recovery, and how building up gradually helped her physically and mentally. 

We also talk about the Walk For Hearts campaign and the work of the British Heart Foundation in supporting people to take those first steps toward better health. 

This is an encouraging, practical conversation that proves you don’t need to overhaul your life overnight — just putting one foot in front of the other can be enough to start.

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, I’m joined by writer David Eldridge and director Julian Jarrold to talk about ITV’s powerful new drama Betrayal.

From the moment the first episode begins, Betrayal makes it clear this is not a slow burn. David and Julian explain how they wanted to hook the audience immediately, throwing them straight into a world of secrecy, danger and shifting loyalties.

We discuss the show’s outstanding cast, including Shaun Evans, Romola Garai and Zara Ahmadi, and how each performance helps ground the drama in realism. The conversation also explores the show’s focus on Iran and the hidden, underground threats at the heart of the story, and why those themes resonate so strongly today.

Finally, David and Julian unpack the title itself, revealing the layered meaning behind Betrayal and how that idea runs through every relationship in the series.

If you enjoy smart, gripping television and love hearing how complex dramas are built from the ground up, this is a must-listen.

You might know Adam Richman from Man v Food, the show that turned food challenges into must-watch television, but his latest project shows a different side to his love of food and culture. 

In Adam Richman Eats Italy, Adam takes a more considered journey through one of the world’s most celebrated food nations, exploring regional dishes, traditions, and the stories behind them. I spoke to Adam back in December as the series was launching, so while this conversation might feel like a look back, it was very much of-the-moment at the time. 

We talked about why Italy was the natural choice for his next adventure, and how his relationship with food has evolved over the years. From our shared experience of watching football in Italy, we moved into why, in a country like Italy, you really shouldn’t leave meals to chance, planning where you eat can make all the difference. 

Adam also opens up about his friendship with the late Anthony Bourdain, including the significance of Bourdain’s final Italian meal in Rome, a moment that still resonates deeply with him. 

And because no conversation with Adam Richman would be complete without sport, we finished by talking football and NFL, his love of Tottenham Hotspur, and how, despite being Brooklyn-born, he became a passionate Miami Dolphins fan. 

Food, travel, sport and reflection, this episode is a reminder that the best conversations, like the best meals, are worth taking your time over.

 🎙️  New episode of The MarshyCast!

I’m joined by relationship and life coach Anna Williamson. 

You’ll know her from Celebs Go Dating, but in this episode we go deeper. 

We talk about the new series, the celebrities taking part including Professor Green, and what really goes on behind the scenes. 

Anna also opens up about financial abuse in relationships, the warning signs people often miss, and why control should never sit with just one person. 

It’s honest, important, and a conversation a lot of people need to hear. 

This is The MarshyCast.

 New podcast episode 🎙️
 
I’m joined by Paul Draper, former lead singer of Mansun, as he heads out on tour celebrating the band’s biggest songs. 

We talk about the Britpop era (even though Mansun never really felt part of it), pressure from record labels, the good and bad of the 90s, and Paul’s solo work — including collaborating with Skin. 

A brilliant, honest conversation.

On the podcast this week, I’m joined by Scottish presenter Kirsty Gallacher and Dr Luke Powles for a really honest conversation about health, awareness and getting older.

Kirsty talks about turning 50 and why she’s enjoying it far more than turning 40, how priorities change with age, and why regular health check-ups matter more than we often realise.

Plus, she opens up about something she didn’t expect… falling in love with radio presenting.

A reassuring, thoughtful chat about looking after yourself and enjoying the stage of life you’re in.

Have you noticed how some films don’t just scare you… they stay with you?

Today, I’m joined by director Zak Hilditch, to talk about his new film We Bury The Dead, starring Daisy Ridley.

It’s a zombie film with a twist, one that actually began before Covid, but took on a very different meaning once the world shut down.

We talk about how early Daisy became involved, why certain sounds and moments can be more unsettling than gore, and what he really hopes audiences take away from the film.

This is a fascinating conversation about horror, humanity, and the stories that linger long after the credits roll.

 Binky Felstead on holidays, relationships and who really makes the decisions 

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, Paul Marsh and co-host Casey Major Bunce (Major Mum Hacks) are joined by TV personality and former Made in Chelsea star Binky Felstead for a refreshingly honest conversation about relationships, decision-making and holidays. 

Binky reveals that she’s never actually booked a holiday abroad herself, always leaving it to her husband. But that’s about to change, as she prepares to book something exotic without the kids for the very first time. 

The chat explores who tends to lead and who follows in relationships, how decisions really get made, and whether too many opinions can sometimes make planning more stressful than it needs to be. 

A light, relatable and genuinely funny episode that will strike a chord with couples everywhere.

 Kezia Gill: All On Red, 20 Years In the Making 

Releasing an album is always a moment — but releasing one after two decades of hard work hits differently. 

In this episode of The MarshyCast, Kezia Gill joins me on the day her new album All On Red lands. We talk about the inspiration behind the record, taking it on the road for her UK tour next month, and what it really takes to keep going when success doesn’t arrive quickly. 

Kezia also reflects on a novelty track that became far bigger than she ever imagined, and why she’s now embracing opportunities beyond music, including presenting. 

It’s a conversation about patience, persistence, and backing yourself when the odds aren’t obvious.

 This week on The MarshyCast, I’m joined by actress Simone Lahbib and Ailsa Herd from Strathcarron Hospice for a powerful and deeply human conversation. 

Simone speaks openly about the loss of her brother Stephen, who died of cancer at a young age while being cared for at Strathcarron Hospice. Alongside Ailsa, we explore what hospices really offer — not just medical care, but dignity, compassion, and space for families during the hardest moments of their lives. 

This episode isn’t about celebrity, headlines, or promotion. It’s about perspective. About love. And about how, in life’s most difficult moments, everything suddenly becomes clear. 

A gentle but important listen.

UK country favourite Jade Helliwell joins me on The MarshyCast for a chat that’s as joyful as it is inspiring.

Fresh from welcoming her baby boy Lance into the world, Jade reflects on an extraordinary period that’s seen her win Best Album and Best Female at the British Country Music Awards — while also releasing her powerful new album Rebegin.

We talk motherhood, music, and momentum, how life has changed both personally and professionally, and what the next few months look like as she heads out on her UK tour.

A conversation full of warmth, honesty, and brilliant country music stories.

Spike Edney: Life on the Road with Queen, Portsmouth Roots & a 2026 Surprise

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, I sit down with Spike Edney, the musician best known for his years touring with Queen.

Spike opens up about growing up in Portsmouth, how music first grabbed him, and how his career eventually led him onto the biggest stages in the world alongside one of rock’s most iconic bands.

We also talk about his brilliant one-man show What’s It Like To Be Spike?, packed with stories from the road, behind-the-scenes moments with Queen, and the reality of life on tour.

And for Queen fans — there’s a moment in the chat where Spike hints that a major anniversary show could be on the horizon in 2026…

A must-listen for music lovers, Queen fans, and anyone fascinated by the stories that happen offstage.

Travel expert Chelsea Dickinson joins The MarshyCast to explain why January is the perfect time to book your next holiday. 

With travel searches peaking at the start of the year, Chelsea breaks down where the real value is right now – from some of the cheapest (but best) European getaways, to destinations off the beaten path that are quietly becoming the next big thing. 

We also talk about one of the biggest booking mistakes people make: focusing on the headline one-way price, rather than checking the real cost of the return flight. 

If you’re planning a break in 2025 and want to book smarter, this episode is a must-listen.

With Giant released in cinemas today, I sat down with director Rowan Athale to talk about bringing the story of boxing icon Prince Naseem Hamed to the big screen.

Rowan explains how the project first came his way, why the casting was so crucial to getting the story right, and why he felt it was important not to gloss over tougher themes, including racism and identity.

We also discuss Prince Naseem Hamed’s involvement with the film, how he reacted to seeing his story told on screen, and the responsibility that comes with portraying such a larger-than-life figure.

A thoughtful, honest conversation about filmmaking, sport, and telling stories the right way.

A brilliant double-feature on The MarshyCast today. 

First up, comedian Alasdair Beckett-King joins me ahead of his latest tour to talk about what audiences can expect, how his surreal online videos compare to the rhythm of live stand-up, and the comedians who inspired him — just not the one everyone always assumes. A thoughtful, witty chat with one of the UK’s most distinctive comic voices. 

Then, celebrity chef Sam Holland (brother of Tom, son of Dominic) steps into the studio to share his guide to the perfect Christmas dinner, how he found his own path as a chef away from the Hollywood spotlight, and what Christmas really looks like in the Holland household. Warm, genuine and full of brilliant kitchen tips.

 🎙️ The MarshyCast – Episode 101 (Back to “Normal”… Whatever That Means!) 

Well… now the dust has settled after the madness of the big 100th episode, it’s back to “normal” at The MarshyCast — if normal means another load of brilliant guests! 

As we head into December, things always get incredibly busy. Don’t panic if you miss an episode or two — we’ll be taking a little break over Christmas, which is the perfect excuse to catch up. And as always, there are loads of Portsmouth-based interviews waiting for you on the Express FM website, plus you can catch me live on Express FM weekdays from 10am and HGV1 Radio from 4pm. 

So… welcome to Podcast 101 — let’s go! 

📺 Nick Knowles
TV presenter, DIY king, and all-round telly legend. We talk household hacks passed down through generations, what it’s really like doing reality TV after I’m A Celebrity and Strictly, and — somehow — we also end up discussing AI-generated music, which absolutely was not on my interview bingo card. 

🎤 Natasha Hamilton (Atomic Kitten)
We talk about the “Grinch Pinch” — why some towns are scaling back festive decorations and how that affects our Christmas spirit. Natasha also opens up about being part of the Girlbands Forever documentary and the joy (and chaos) of passing parenting wisdom down to the next generation. 

🤠 Brian Collins – Country Music singer
We chat about juggling life as both an artist and a producer for others, the success of his last two singles, what Christmas and Thanksgiving look like for him… and what’s coming in 2026 (spoiler: he’s coming back to the UK 🇬🇧). 

I’ve got more jam-packed episodes of The MarshyCast coming over the next few weeks, so as always — thank you for your support. It genuinely means the world to me. 💙

 🎉 HERE. WE. GO.
Time for Episode 100 of The MarshyCast! 💯✨ 

I’ve spent the last month wondering what to do for the big one — a “best of”? A highlight reel? A public vote? A World Cup of Interviews? But then… something happened. The universe aligned. The perfect guest arrived. 

One of my all-time favourite TV characters is Ari Gold from Entourage — electric, unhinged, hilarious, a tornado in a suit. And the man who brought him to life? Jeremy Piven. One of the most versatile, endlessly watchable actors out there — a guy who makes you wonder, “Why isn’t he in everything!?” 

So when the chance came up to chat to him about his new movie Primitive War, it felt like destiny. Episode 100 destiny. 

🎬 Primitive War
We dove into Luke Sparke’s monster of a film — made (allegedly) on just $8 million, less than some TikTok influencers spend on a single day out. We talked about why Primitive War gets right what the Jurassic films got wrong, and why Jeremy’s character, Colonel Jericho, rocks a southern accent. 

🇬🇧 His time in the UK
We also spoke about his years living and working here, the movie that took him 15 years to get made, and the iconic TV show he’s somehow… never seen (prepare yourself). 

🎤 And of course… the quotes
To celebrate the big 100, we finished with a quiz on his most legendary lines — yes, including an Ari Gold gem. And yes, it was glorious.

🎙️ It’s time for an early… or late… episode of The MarshyCast — depending on how you look at it!

I’ve been battling a chest infection these last couple of weeks (my poor, tired body has decided to start its retirement early), which means a few interviews that should have gone out on air didn’t quite make it. But YOU shouldn’t suffer just because I’ve been coughing like a 90-year-old chimney sweep — so here we are with Episode 99 of The MarshyCast!

…and buckle up, because Episode 100 — with one of my favourite guests EVER — is landing in just a few days 👀🔥

But first, this week’s very busy episode:

🩸 Mercedes Bryce Morgan – Director of Bone Lake
We get into that opening scene (the one that’ll make you physically wince), the double twist lurking in the story, and the glorious chaos of blood and gore that makes the film a wild ride. Mercedes also talks about the shoot, the on-set challenges, and which classic films influenced Bone Lake’s tone, terror, and teeth.

🏰 Angus Ashworth – Yorkshire Heritage Hero
We talk about the jaw-dropping homes featured in the new series, the delicate divide between the “haves” and “have-nots,” and the daily struggle to keep stately homes standing. Angus also shares some of the strangest finds he’s come across, why dead animals are apparently back in fashion, and what it’s like to step into a house containing an (alleged) actual dead body.

⚔️ Bruce Crompton & Ed Sayer – Battle Treasures
These two dive into the world of military relics: the rarest finds, the most surprising discoveries, and the pieces that tell the biggest stories. I asked the all-important question — if your collection was on fire, which single item would you save? — and we talk about what they hope viewers take away from the series.

🎶 Skinny Lister – Folk-Punk Favourites
We chat about the band’s new single, their upcoming album, and what fans can expect from the tour. I also get into life on the road, the band’s glorious chaos, and — of course — who the biggest troublemaker is.

Thank you for listening — whether you're brand new to my world or an OG MarshyCast loyalist, you all matter just the same. 💙

Keep your eyes and ears open… Episode 100 is coming, and trust me, you’ll want to be here for it.

As always: thank you for the love, thank you for the support, and thank you for being part of this brilliantly bonkers journey. 🎧✨

 🎙️ Hello and welcome to The MarshyCast! 

If last week’s episode was a four-course feast, this week’s is a much more slimming meal — lighter, tastier, and guaranteed to leave you wanting more. 😉 

But here’s a little secret… the next few weeks are going to be massive as we edge closer to the magic 100th episode of The MarshyCast! 🎉 We’re nearly there — and trust me, I’ve got some huge names lined up, including the brilliant Adam Richman (Man v Food) and the one and only Jeremy Piven (Entourage, Mr Selfridge). Those chats aren’t quite ready to serve yet, but keep an eye on my socials for some early tasters! 

Oh, and don’t forget — you can catch me live every weekday on Express FM (10am) and HGV1 Radio (4pm) as things start to heat up heading into Christmas. 

Now, on to this week’s delicious episode… 

🚗 James May – former Top Gear presenter and all-round legend – joins me to talk about his new show James May’s Shed Load of Ideas. We chat about why acting like a bunch of overgrown 12-year-olds seems to work so well on TV, the ideas that looked great on paper (but not so much in practice), and the one invention that’s so good, I can’t believe no one’s done it before. Oh, and why his grandkids might just grow up filthy rich. 

😂 Comedian Ian Stone – on tour with Looking for the Wow. We talk about finding that spark in everyday life, why a £20 comedy ticket is a better investment than a fancy coffee, and the perils of comedians navigating social media — because, let’s face it, not every clip is gold! 

🤖 AI expert Caitlin Mellor – on how one in five Brits now consider AI to be their friend! We discuss how we should treat AI, the positive ways it can make our lives easier, and how it might just take a load off our mental to-do lists. Don’t worry — it’s not quite The Terminator… yet. 

So there you have it — a perfectly portioned MarshyCast: lighter, leaner, and just as satisfying. Stay tuned, because the next few weeks are going to be big!

 🎙️ HELLOOOOO! We’re back — and boy, are we back with a bang! 

After a lovely week off with the family, The MarshyCast returns, refreshed, recharged, and ready to bring the chaos, the laughs, and the legends. 

Before we dive in — don’t forget you can still catch me live every weekday on Express FM from 10 am and HGV1 Radio from 4 pm, and for even more behind-the-scenes fun, videos, and occasional nonsense, follow me on the socials. Right… enough teasing. Let’s get to this week’s epic line-up 👇 

🎹 The legendary Jools Holland!
We talk all about his upcoming tour with the Rhythm & Blues Orchestra, why Later… with Jools Holland has stood the test of time, and the incredible artists he’s collaborated with over the years — including who he considers the ultimate performer he’s ever worked with. 

🥩 Angellica Bell & Debbie Smith (Red Tractor)
We chat classic British dishes that are keeping the UK farming industry thriving, new recipes that have become part of British culture, and the real impact of soaring food prices. Plus, a lovely moment at the Pride of Britain Awards, also honouring the amazing Moira Stuart. 

🌍 Harleymoon Kemp
Who can be seen racing across the globe with her brother Roman on BBC One’s Celebrity Race Across the World! We discuss the gruelling journey, working on a tight budget, stepping out of her comfort zone, and discovering a new side to her sibling. She also shares her love for country music, Nashville adventures, and her latest single. 

😂 Matt Richardson
The comedian returns to the stage with a brand-new tour — and some unexpected confessions. We talk cats, lawns, heavy rock, and the teachers who doubted him (spoiler: this tour is a cheeky middle finger to them!). 

After that line-up, you don’t need congratulating for making it to the end — you deserve a medal 🏅. But really, after an episode this good, I’m not surprised you stuck around. 

🎧 The perfect MarshyCast to recommend to a mate. Who knows — they might not even hate it! 😉

What are you waiting for? Get in here — it’s time for The MarshyCast! 

If you just can’t get enough of my silky voice and charming interviews (and who could blame you?), remember there’s plenty more over on the Express FM website and my live shows every weekday — Express FM from 10 am and HGV1 Radio from 4 pm. 

Anyway, enough about how amazing I am — let’s talk about you! You’re amazing because you’re listening to me! So let’s get straight into this week’s incredible line-up… 

🍳 Chef Ravneet Gill – the star of Chop House on Discovery+. We chat about how the show came to be, what came first — the restaurant or the TV show — and what it’s really like juggling a new restaurant, a TV series, and young kids all at once. Rav also shares how Chop House can improve your cooking… even without measurements! 

💘 Comedian Olga Koch – talking all things modern dating! We decode today’s wild new dating terms, discuss whether people are hunting for romance or practicality, and debate how long it takes before the “real you” appears on a date (brace yourselves!). 

🪚 The Repair Shop’s Will Kirk – on taking the beloved show on the road! We chat about what audiences can expect from the live version, the moments you don’t see on TV, and why more people than ever are choosing to repair rather than replace. 

Thank you, as always, for sticking with me right to the end — you clearly love me more than my wife or my mum. 💙
 And if you really love me, go on… like, subscribe, and share the podcast. What else are you doing with your life? 😉

It’s time for another fan-dabi-dozy episode of The MarshyCast — officially one of the top five podcasts in the world (according to absolutely no one but me… yet 😉). 

Before we dive into this week’s incredible guests, I just want to give a huge shout-out to the amazing team behind Baton of Hope – Portsmouth. Not only did I get involved on the main day, but I also had the honour of hosting the celebration evening — what an inspiring event! 

And don’t forget, you can still catch me on Express FM weekdays from 10 am – 1 pm and on HGV1 Radio from 4 pm – 7 pm — in my humble opinion, both shows are getting better all the time! 

Now, on to this week’s MarshyCast... 

🎧 For our first interview, I was joined by my Tuesday co-host Casey Major Bunce as we welcomed none other than TV and radio legends Dick & Dom!
We chatted about how their on-screen partnership has lasted 30 years, both on and off the mic, and what advice they had for a brand-new radio duo like us. We also asked the big question: does it ever get tiring having people shout “bogies” at you? Plus, we talked about how AI is creeping into DIY and rental life — including how it might just help you get that all-important safety deposit back. 

😂 Then I caught up with comedian Helen Bauer, whose new show Bless Her is taking the comedy world by storm. Well… we tried to talk about that, but ended up chatting about chocolate for breakfast, pasta naps, and why Pret might not be as posh as I thought! Helen also lifted the lid on what really goes on behind the scenes of TV panel shows — and it’s not all glitz and glamour. 

As always, there are loads more of my Portsmouth-based interviews waiting for you on the Express FM website. And if you’ve made it this far — I love you a little bit more every time. ❤️ 

If you didn’t hate this podcast (and I sincerely hope you didn’t), give it a like, a share, and a subscribe — and you’ll officially be my best friend forever. 

Until next time… stay brilliant, stay curious, and remember — the bogies never die. 😉

🎙️ Well hello there, MarshyCast fans!

To say it’s been a busy week would be an understatement! Between the radio shows, interviews, and the usual chaos, it’s all go in Marshy-land. If you want to keep up with more than what you hear here, make sure you’re following my socials and tuning in to my shows on Express FM and HGV1 Radio — otherwise, you’ll just have to wait until the next episode! 😉

Now… on to this week’s bumper edition of The MarshyCast!

🎭 Neil Ashton & Joanna Higson – from Sky TV’s Brassic – join me to talk about the show’s final series, how they plan to top the last one, and why the funniest comedies don’t always need a plot to make us laugh. We also chat about working with that incredible cast and what’s next for them both.

🔨 Charlie Ross – TV presenter, antiques expert and all-round legend – tells me about his new tour with his TV friends, how those friendships began, and some of the wildest things he’s ever sold at auction. Spoiler alert: one involved a $20 million car, another involved hip surgery, and there was even a cat neutering in there somewhere. Only Charlie!

🎤 Briana Corrigan – former singer of The Beautiful South – chats about how the band began, how it ended, and the time Betty Boo kicked her out of a dressing room. We also talk about her brand-new album and tour.

🎶 Paul Jones – from Manfred Mann and now The Manfreds – takes us back to the swinging 60s, sharing stories from the band’s heyday, and how he was this close to joining The Rolling Stones.

As always, thank you for listening, reading, and being part of the journey. Stay up to date with all the extra chaos on my socials and my radio shows.

Until next time — adios, bon voyage, and keep smiling! 😎

🎙️ Here we go again—it’s MarshyCast time!
Another week, another wonderfully random mix of guests (you wouldn’t want it any other way, would you?). 

On this week’s podcast… 

🎶 John Grant – the brilliant singer-songwriter with an incredible story to tell. From the US to Iceland, bilingual albums to genre-hopping sounds, his love for the UK has never wavered. We chat about his creative process, his biggest hit GMF (and its very cheeky radio edit), and why he doesn’t always write with radio in mind. 

😂 Jennifer Irons – comedian and creator of the hit show Bad Immigrant. Inspired by her move from Canada to the UK, Jennifer opens up about the misconceptions around immigration, the role skin colour can play in how people are treated, and yes—how roller skates found their way into the act! 

📱 Simrat Sharma (Uswitch) – here to help us make sense of the latest mobile phones on the market. From brand-new models to refurbished bargains, we talk about finding the right phone for your needs without breaking the bank. 

As always, thanks for being part of this journey—it means the world. Now go hit play and enjoy this week’s MarshyCast. Yada yada, etc etc… 😉

🎙️ Hola amigos—it’s MarshyCast time again!

After a whirlwind week on the radio (and what felt like the last taste of summer 🌞), I’ve got another packed episode for you. As always, you can find plenty more of my Portsmouth-based interviews on the Express FM website, and extra clips, videos, and even my Top 10 Lead Singers of All Time list over on my socials. But let’s get into this week’s guests—three absolute gems:

✨ Max Fox – Golden Buzzer winner on Britain’s Got Talent and director of Cirque: The Greatest Show – Reimagined. We chat about why failure was key to his show’s success, and how taking a chance (and begging Simon Cowell!) changed everything.

🔬 Dr Richard Shepherd – Britain’s leading forensic pathologist, on tour with Time of Death: More Unnatural Causes. We discuss the reality of his job, his work on high-profile cases (including a certain princess), and whether audiences need a strong stomach to see his show live.

🎶 Beaky – from legendary 60s group Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich. He takes us back to the birth of rock ‘n’ roll, shares stories from their heyday (when some even said they rivalled The Beatles & Stones), and tells us why he still loves performing—at 80 years old!

Muchas gracias for listening—don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share. I’ll be back next week with another brilliantly random mix of guests. And in the words of Mark Wahlberg… say hello to your mother for me, OK?

 🎙️ The MarshyCast is back with another star-studded episode! 

It’s been a busy week—alongside recording this podcast, we were invited to the Theatre Royal in Portsmouth for the Snow White panto launch, where I interviewed the full cast and crew. You can catch all of that over on the Express FM website. 

It’s a shorter week for me on the radio as I head into hospital for a small procedure, but fear not—just like The Terminator… I’ll be back! 💪 

On this week’s MarshyCast: 

🔧 Ant Anstead – TV favourite from Wheeler Dealers and Master Mechanic – joins me to talk about Season 2 of his series Born Mechanic. He opens up about dedicating the show to his parents, how it would look if filmed in California, and shares a proud moment reflecting on his children’s recent successes. 

🎭 Sherrie Hewson – true British acting royalty – known from Coronation Street, Emmerdale, Benidorm and most recently Hollyoaks. We talk nostalgia, the magic of classic TV, and why channels showing golden oldies might just be doing the best job for over-55s audiences. Sherrie even drops a cheeky hint that she may be back on our screens soon… 👀 

As always, thank you for being part of this journey—it means the world. Plenty more exciting interviews are coming your way soon. And until then… Hasta la vista, baby.

 🎙️ The MarshyCast is back—bigger, better, and more regular than ever! 

As Dodgy sang back in ’95, “We’re staying out for the summer”—and we certainly did. But now summer’s over, the podcast is back to its regular rhythm. Don’t worry though, some things never change: you can still catch me on Express FM and HGV1 Radio, plus all the behind-the-scenes fun and interview extras across my socials. 

This week’s episode is packed: 

😂 Comedian Tom Stade—one of my all-time favourites—drops by to talk touring life, the tricky art of choosing what makes it into a show, and the unexpected role his family sometimes plays in his routines. Plus, he shares a brilliant secret trick for remembering people’s names—you’ll want to steal this one. 

🕵️‍♀️ TV true-crime presenter Emma Kenny takes us deep into the chilling world of Killer Couples (no, not Taylor & Kelce—think Fred & Rose). As she takes her new show on tour, Emma reveals what drives murderous duos, how their twisted dynamics work, and we celebrate both her award win and her new arrival. 

🎶 And finally, Ben Portsmouth—arguably the UK’s best Elvis tribute—joins me to talk about discovering The King, stepping into his shoes on stage, and why Elvis’s music and magic still connect with audiences more than six decades on. 

As always, thank you for listening and supporting the show—it’s a privilege to share these conversations with you. Let’s make this new season of The MarshyCast the best yet!

 🎙️ It’s been a minute… but The MarshyCast is back—and it’s a big one! 

Summer might make the episodes a little sporadic, but when they drop, they’re worth the wait—and this week’s is no exception. To celebrate the upcoming release of Red Sonja from Signature Entertainment, I’ve got a very special chat with star Matilda Lutz and director MJ Bassett. 

We dive into what’s in store for Red Sonja in 2025—both the film and the legendary character. Hear why Matilda was the perfect choice for the role (and not an MMA or WWE fighter), how many versions of the script have been floating around for the past two decades, and why the movie is finally happening now. Plus, we talk about the incredible cast, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s thoughts on the project, and what’s coming next. 

I’m taking a short break from my shows on Express FM and HGV1 Radio, but you can still catch me live at Truckfest South East and Victorious Festival over the next couple of weeks. If you can’t make it in person, join me on socials for all the behind-the-scenes fun!

 🎙️ Welcome to a brand-new episode of The MarshyCast!
Before I take a well-earned break to enjoy some summer fun with the kids, I’m leaving you with a packed episode full of brilliant guests and entertaining stories to keep you company while I’m off-air. 

📺 First up, actor and writer Ryan Sampson joins me to chat all about the latest season of Mr Bigstuff—now streaming on Sky and NOW. We talk about working with Danny Dyer (yes, including that hilarious story of Danny sprinting naked down the street with only a sock to preserve his modesty!), and the unique challenge of writing and acting in a show without directing it. 

🌍 Then, I catch up with Alfie Watts, winner of Race Across the World, who shares some golden travel do’s and don’ts, reveals his frustrations with American roads, and admits he’s still learning as he goes. Plenty of handy tips if you’ve got the travel bug! 

🎶 Finally, I’m joined by singer and vocal coach Annie Skates, who’s gearing up to perform ABBA’s greatest hits with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra at Portsmouth Guildhall. We dive into why ABBA’s music still connects globally after five decades, her personal favourites, and her behind-the-scenes stories working with actors like Rami Malek on their singing journeys. 

As always, thank you so much for listening and supporting the show—every stream, comment, and share means the world. While I’m off for a little summer reset, don’t forget you can catch up on previous episodes and other interviews on Express FM and online. I’ll miss you, but I’ll be back before you know it!

 🎙️ The MarshyCast is back! 

Hello! Hola! Bonjour! Guten Tag! However you say it — welcome back to another episode of The MarshyCast. Summer brings changes: tours turn into festivals, football winds down, and everything takes a little breather. But while the podcast might occasionally pause, the radio shows never do! You’ll still find me on Express FM at 10am and HGV1 Radio at 4pm, chatting to brilliant guests, playing top tunes, and getting stuck into games, stories and nonsense. You can also catch my Portsmouth-based interviews on the Portsmouth People podcast. Now… let’s dive in. 

⚽ Former Manchester United and Bournemouth midfielder Russell Beardsmore joined me ahead of a special charity match — Premier League Legends vs Pompey Legends — in support of Sophie’s Legacy. We spoke about playing under Sir Alex Ferguson, the rise of Bournemouth, and which players still secretly have it (even if their knees don’t). 

🧪 TV’s favourite gastronaught Stefan Gates dropped in to chat about his brilliantly bonkers Rude Science tour. We talked fart facts, educational explosions, and why getting a little gross can actually help kids learn the really important stuff. 

🎸 Billy Gregory from local rising stars Crystal Tides told me all about their cinematic new single Movies, their massive sold-out Guildhall show, and how it felt to headline in their hometown. They’re skipping Victorious Festival this year — but don’t worry, they’re hitting plenty of stages elsewhere. 

🎧 Thanks as ever for listening, liking and sharing. There are loads more great guests coming soon on The MarshyCast — but if you’re impatient, just flick on the radio. You know where I am. And hey, we both know I’m the best interviewer around… now let’s just tell the rest of the world.

🎙️ The MarshyCast is back!

Hello, hello… it’s good to be back, it’s good to be back! Yes, Oasis are returning — and so am I. After a few weeks off (a story for another time!), I’m thrilled to return with a brand new episode of The MarshyCast featuring three brilliant guests from the world of music — each with their own sound, story and style.

✨ As always, you can catch even more interviews, features and fun on my weekday radio shows — 10am on Express FM and 4pm on HGV1 Radio. Plus, follow me on all the socials for behind-the-scenes content, videos and more. Now, let’s get to the good stuff...

🎸 Jake Bugg exploded onto the scene with Lightning Bolt and has been making standout music ever since. We talked about how the industry and his sound have evolved over the past 15 years, the unique format of his latest tour (half acoustic, half electric), his thoughts on the Oasis reunion, and — of course — his beloved Notts County.

🔥 Dexter from The K’s joined me to talk about the band's rise, their upcoming second album, and what it’s like being featured in Rolling Stone. We also chatted about their summer festival schedule, how live shows differ in scale and energy, and what it takes to break through in the US.

📻 Lolly, the 90s pop icon behind Mickey and Viva La Radio, is back with a grown-up twist and a brand new single, Only For Love. We discussed what brought her back into the studio, her evolving sound, and what it’s like watching her daughter step into the industry. Plus, if she could go back — would she change anything from her pop princess days?

🎧 Thanks as always for reading, listening and sticking with me. Absence may make the heart grow fonder — I’ve missed you, and I hope you’ve missed me too! Don’t forget to like, share, subscribe, and tune in to the radio shows. The MarshyCast is back — and it’s sounding better than ever.

 It’s that time again — The MarshyCast is here to tickle your ears and flex those brain muscles! As always, don’t forget you can catch me on Express FM and HGV1 Radio throughout the week, as well as my other podcasts including Portsmouth People and Casey Major Bunce aka Major Mum Hacks. Plus, I’m all over social media like a strong cup of tea on a drizzly British morning — follow me for extra content, behind-the-scenes bits, and the occasional moan about modern life. 

Now, onto this week’s star-studded line-up: 

🎤 Comedian & Actor Rhys Darby joins us as he tours the UK for the first time in a decade! We chat about the move from New Zealand to LA, parenting adult kids, how Brits, Kiwis and Americans speak very different versions of English, and what fans can expect from his stand-up. And yes, I had to ask him about Jumanji — fans, get excited. 

⚽ Dean Windass, former Premier League striker, talks about his upcoming charity match supporting Sophie’s Legacy, his personal connection to the cause, and why these games mean so much. He also opens up about his dementia diagnosis, shares stories from his playing days, and what it’s like when your team talk happens… right on the pitch! 

🔥 Matthew Hoggard MBE might be known for his cricket, but he’s also mad about BBQs. We discussed his perfect summer spread, wine pairings, BBQ dos and don’ts, and whether a fancy grill really beats a trusty old one. I also got his take on England’s current cricket set-up and young star Jacob Bethell. 

🇩🇪 Finally, Henning Wehn tells us why he nearly moved to Portsmouth, his fondness for the South Coast, and his favourite football fan. We also chat about his new comedy tour centred around climate change, opinions (even the wrong ones), and his signature satirical take on British life. 

Thanks for reading — and if you’ve made it to the end, you officially have the patience of a saint and the stamina of a Tour de France cyclist. Like, share, subscribe and follow — it helps me sleep at night. Just don’t follow me in real life. That’s weird.

This week on The MarshyCast:

🎤 Comedian Paul McCaffrey is heading to the Edinburgh Fringe with a brand new show – but before that, he joined me to rant like the grumpy old men we clearly are becoming. From delivery drivers to kids who’ve never known the struggle of using a coat hanger as a TV aerial, we covered it all. We also chatted about his brilliant podcast work and what he's got planned for the future.

🔥 BBQ legends Sam & Shauna, the award-winning TV Pitmasters, are back with sizzling tips for summer. We talked about why BBQs shouldn't be saved just for sunny days, why pineapple deserves a spot on the grill, and what people get right (and very wrong) when cooking over flames.

🎸 And I caught up with indie rock band The Ariston, fresh from supporting The Lottery Winners and completing their first UK mini-tour. We discussed their sound, how the band formed, and what fans can expect when they hit the stage.

 It’s MarshyCast time again! 

Hello you lovely lot! I hope you’re enjoying the warmer weather, longer days, and possibly even some bank holiday fun! Whether you're out in the sunshine, stuck in traffic, or hiding from relatives, I’ve got another cracking episode lined up for you. 

As always, if you want even more of me (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t?), you can catch my weekday radio shows on Express FM and HGV1 Radio, as well as my other podcasts: Portsmouth People and Major Mum Hacks with the brilliant Casey Major Bunce—all available via the Express FM website. And of course, follow me on socials for behind-the-scenes bits and daily nonsense. 

On this week’s episode: 

🐾 Dr Tammie King explains why more of us are turning to our pets for emotional support rather than our partners when life gets stressful. We chatted about the science behind the comfort our furry friends give us, and what this says about modern relationships. Spoiler alert: your dog may know you better than your spouse. 

🏡 Etiquette expert Jo Bryant joins me to run through the essential do’s and don’ts for the bank holiday weekend—whether you’re the host or the guest. From what to bring to when to leave, Jo’s got you covered so you can avoid any social faux pas and keep the in-laws sweet. 

🧠 And finally, I caught up with the ever-brilliant Dr Amir Khan about how we can tackle forgetfulness—though ironically, I almost forgot to do the interview. We talked about the science of memory, why we’re all feeling a bit more forgetful lately, and practical tips to sharpen your mind. 

Thanks as always for tuning in—you’re a legend for sticking around to the end. Like, share, subscribe, tell a friend, shout it out of a window… whatever works. I’ll be back next week with more great guests and questionable jokes.

 It’s time for another episode of The MarshyCast! 

This week’s episode comes hot off the heels of an incredible evening at the Radio Academy Awards, where I joined my fellow Express FM team members as we were nominated for Best Local Radio Station. We may have been the smallest station in the room, but being recognised alongside the industry’s biggest hitters was a win in itself — and a night to remember! 

Of course, don’t forget you can still catch my live shows on Express FM and HGV1 Radio throughout the week, and check out the Portsmouth People and Major Mum Hacks with Casey Major Bunce, podcasts via the Express FM website and socials. 

On this week’s bumper MarshyCast: 

🕺 Strictly Come Dancing’s Kai Widdrington chats about his high-energy new tour Evolution, the joy of dancing with the iconic Angela Rippon, and the fine art of balancing classic routines with fresh choreography. We also touched on his Southampton roots, his surprising love for Portsmouth, and the big finale in Fareham! 

🎸 Reef frontman Gary Stringer drops in to talk about the band’s 30th anniversary tour for Replenish, what it’s like performing songs from three decades ago, the breakthrough Sony MiniDisc advert that helped catapult them to fame, and whether new music is on the horizon. 

🤰 Broadcaster Ashley James opens up about the unspoken side effects of pregnancy and motherhood. We talked about why it's so important to shine a light on the realities women face — not just the picture-perfect version we often see. 

🌍 Travel expert Lisa Francesca Nand shares her top tips on affordable summer destinations, why steering clear of the tourist traps can actually level-up your holiday, and what she would consider her ultimate summer escape. 

Thanks, as always, for sticking around right to the end — you’re the podcast equivalent of a post-credits Marvel scene!
 Give me a follow on socials (not in real life please), and don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe. Every bit of support helps me feel 4% less awkward about self-promotion.

It’s MarshyCast time!
A little bonus episode this week — I wasn’t expecting to be on air, but long story short… I was! Hurrah! Don’t forget, you can also catch my weekday shows on Express FM and HGV1 Radio, plus more interviews on the Portsmouth People and with Casey Major Bunce aka Major Mum Hacks podcasts — all the links are on my socials. 

On this week’s show: 

I caught up with comedian Paul Chowdhry, who’s currently on his Englandia tour. We chatted about what it’s like to sell out the O2 Arena, how performing comedy in a huge arena compares to the smaller, more intimate shows, and why his tour has gone so well he’s had to add extra dates. Paul also reflected on 25 years in comedy, the changes he’s seen, plus the fantastic shape he’s in — including his hilarious 'ab-off' with Chris Eubank Jr! 

I also spoke to chef Asma Khan about her new TV show Secrets of the Curry Kitchen on the Food Network. Asma shared why 'Indian' isn’t actually a dish, why we should all slow down and savour the cooking process, and the incredible women who’ve been cooking alongside her for years. And yes, I had to ask — she revealed her guilty pleasure after a long shift in the kitchen! 

Thanks for tuning in, as always — and if you’ve made it this far, I salute you! Like, share, subscribe, and I’ll be back next week with more.
